💜The King and Queen💜

Chapter 3

Meanwhile in Auradon, Ben walked around Auradon prep. He smiled as he saw the students smiling and laughing. Ever since the villains left, Auradon is a happy and safe place. It wasn't easy being a king, but it was a lot easier without the villains being here causing all the trouble. He no longer had to cover for them, and that made life a lot easier. In the corner of his eye, he saw a dark figure walking up behind him. He glanced over his shoulder and faced one of his main guards. "Good morning, Jack," Ben said, "May I ask why you are following me?" "My King, I apologize for disturbing you, but there is an emergency." He tells the young king. Ben sighs "Tell them to wait, I am having a moment of peace." Ben says "My King, your parents will not be very pleased when I return without you." Jack tells him. The young king took a deep breath before returning to his office.

"Are you out of your mind, what on earth were you thinking?!" Adam yelled at his son. Ben calmly sat in his chair "I did what's best for Auradon." He began "But lighting one of their ships on fire seemed alright to you?!" The former king yelled. Ben laughed "I don't quite understand what you two are complaining about? I solved one of our problems." He barked. The former queen glanced at her son "Their king and queen are probably already on their way here, and there is no way of stopping them." She says quietly. Ben glanced at his mother "Are you scared of pronouncing their names?" He asked her. His mother turned towards him "It's not them I am afraid of, it's you who we should fear." She tells her son. Ben chuckled "Mother, I can guarantee you, Mal and Carlos won't be able to set foot in this kingdom." He got out of his chair "Our people are safe." he said, "Don't be afraid."Right as he finished his sentence, loud noises were coming from behind the closed doors. Ben stood in front of his parents "I'll take care of this." He says. His parents left the room, leaving Ben on his own. The noise stopped for a couple of seconds before the door flew open. Ben stood behind his desk as his eyes met green ones. Mal stepped inside the office "Appearantly you didn't stick to our agreements," She said, "let's have some fun shall we?"

Back on the Isle, Uma was on her bed crying. Usually, she was a strong and powerful woman, captain of her pirate crew and no one who didn't know her name. Now, she was weak splattered into pieces. She wasn't able to control her emotions, not anymore. She heard a knock on her door "Auntie Uma?" A sweet voice asked. Uma looked up and saw Melanie, she wiped away her tears "Yes, Mel?" She says. Melanie walks into Uma's room and climbs on her bed "Why are you sad?" The little girl asks. Uma chuckles "I'm not sad, Mel." She said sweetly "But you were crying. Are you crying because your ship is gone?" Melanie said. Uma sighted "Yeah, Auntie Uma was crying because her ship's gone." Uma says while tears started to form in her eyes. Melanie crawled towards Uma and wiped her tears away "Mommy will get your ship back." The little girl said and hugged the sea witch. Uma returned the hug "Don't tell Mommy and Daddy about this would you?" Uma asks "I won't." Melanie promises.

Meanwhile, in Ben's office, Mal and Carlos have arrived. Ben tried to hide behind his desk but Mal pushed him into his chair. Carlos leaned against the wall "Don't kill him." he tells her "I won't." She says. Mal and Ben make eye contact "Why did you do it?" The purple-haired girl asked the young king. He, of course, denied everything "I'm sorry, what are we talking about here?" He asked her. Mal groaned and let her eyes glow bright green "Bullshit, you can't fool me. Why did you do it?" She asked again "What if I tell you I didn't do it?" He asks her. Carlos chuckled "Don't go there, Man. We know you did it, the question is why all we need is an answer." He tells him and walks towards Mal. He leans down to her ear "And if he doesn't answer, I might let you torture him." He whispers and sits on the desk. Mal smirks and leans down to face Ben "You could've killed innocent souls." She tells him. Ben chuckles "Innocent? No one on the Isle is innocent." He laughs. Mal grabs his hair "Like you're innocent, you could've killed someone!" She yells in his face. He smirks "Sadly I didn't. What are you going to do about it?" He asked with a smirk. Mal glanced at Carlos before looking back at Ben "Hurt you, really really bad." She says.
